What is this all about?

The map shows the existing MEV Boost relayers and the MEV-boosted blocks of the last ½ day that contained Tornado Cash transactions.

What qualifies as a tornado?

Every block including a transaction that interacted (deposit/withdraw) with the ETH, DAI, USDC, USDT, cDai or wBTC contracts of Tornado Cash in all denominations on L1 Ethereum.

Why is this information helpful?

The OFAC sanctioned Tornado Cash, a privacy tool on Ethereum. As a result, a number of companies applied the censorship and stopped processing Tornado Cash transactions (e.g. relayers not accepting blocks with Tornado Cash transactions). This negatively impacts the UX of Tornado Cash users and ultimately decreases privacy on Ethereum.

What is the OFAC?

The OFAC is the Office of Foreign Assets Control, a branch of the U.S. Department of the Treasury that enforces economic and trade sanctions against foreign countries and entities.
